Those lights are super!
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

I had a rickety old fabric version of this, which was a death trap in the making. The fabric had finally started tearing, so now I have this!

Sadly now we’re almost cashless, I’m not racking up the £2 coins I was saving for them. We just did a deal on my contribution this afternoon.

Yes, I bought them maybe 4 or 5 summers ago and they're still working well (i put them away in the winter). Theyve changed the connectors apparently though since (I was going to do a complicated festoon lighting shuffle but realised it wouldn't work).

These are not new purchases but we've had some old chairs restored. I'm so pleased with how they have turned out.

Not the most exciting of purchases, but I now own some mid-century dining chairs to go with my table, and a bathroom light (actual size :mrgreen: ) that doesn't make me want to cry. Why are bathroom lights usually so foul?
